Well it’s not quite as good as having my own radio show, but for two hours tomorrow it’s the same damn thing! Today I received word that the host of Rhythm n’ Roots, a reggae/calypso/etc show on CFMU, won’t be able to make it, and I was the first to respond to the fill-in call. So tomorrow on 93.3fm CFMU from 3:30 to 5:30 I get to follow my musical muse wherever fancy takes it and risk all sorts of people throughout Hamilton overhearing.
Damon is excited.
It’s a little bit scary cause I’ve never done it before and I’ll have to remember how to work all the CD players and mixers and faders and microphones and computers… but hopefully I can manage, or at least fail in an entertaining sort of way. Naturally I’m now spending all my essay-due-monday-time trying to find all the right tracks to play tomorrow and wow the pants off Hamilton with.
This merry affair will of course be broadcast. In the Hamilton area at 93.3 FM CFMU, and on the internet at the CFMU website(look for the ‘listen now’ link).
